Some of them are probably too young to remember the Macarena, but they would've seen the Bird Dance performed at Johnny's wedding.

"VAL-DER"? Is that really how one is to pronounce Val d'Or?

According to CP

It's just pre-season, and you're supposed to suck now if you're going to be good later.

I haven't bothered to get too worked up about a preseason game, but citing Tampa Bay's performance as a corollary is certainly a reach
wrong, no pre-season last year

last pre-season was after they got swept in the first round, then went 2-5 in the pre-season, and then won the cup.

If I'm Darryl Sutter, I demand a scoreboard audit when this is over.

For Phillips, Ruzicka and Posposil it means a lot. The trio are fighting for a spot on the Flames roster and need to impress with ice time they get.

don't think anyone has said that...just that it isn't relevant to regular season results either way

We joke about all the Oilers pre-season championships all those years that led to lottery finishes.

Backlund just made a nice dangle ... into the corner. No pass, no shot. Nothing.

Wonder what Sutter told them…like they don’t even try. Not just the vets but the new guys as well. And if they tried, they are in more trouble than we thought

you're right. I stand corrected.

Still the point stands in that in that that Tampa Bay team that had 128 pts in 2019.

Not a team that had a ton of open spots nor fighting for a playoff spot

Oh my refs.

Guys in stripes have been dicks to the people that paid real money to sit and watch this.

It's preseason, you couldn't throw the crowd a bone earlier?
